Product Overview

Focusing on the methodology of preservation technology, this book tells the story of the $90 million historic preservation of a designated New York City landmark. It presents the restoration and adaptive reuse of the magnificent courthouse, built by New York's crooked 'Boss' Tweed, as an exemplar of preservation practice.

The project is unique, but the approach and techniques utilized in the work have application for saving other public buildings. 250; 16 pages color
